Lord of The Rings

I was reading the Hobbit to my 4-year old. We got to the part where Bilbo uses the ring to escape Gollum when my daughter dutifully reminds me that Sonic the Hedgehog uses gold rings too. We start chatting about how the ring is magic and needs to be destroyed. Once she grasps the idea, she asked me “why doesn’t Sonic just take the ring to the volcano? He’s really fast.”

And you know what? She’s right. Sonic would save the world faster than you could say “chili dog”. Forget the eagles, why didn’t Tolkien take Sonic into consideration? This is a glaring plot hole.
